[DML] Re: brake servo hoses

["content22207" <brobertson@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I've used 3/8" transmission cooler hose for brake boosters on my other
vehicles with no problem. It's thicker (even less collapsable) than
the fuel line hose I use to good effect in 1/4" vacuum applications.
My Delo is plumbed with it on the HVAC side (passenger side is still
original from the Tee forward).
